I will also bump last year's post for FA results. I hope it is helpful to this year's applicants and their families but you'll have to excuse the **** who tried to take over the thread and said nasty things about FA families.

I don't know what you think is funny- as a parent who applied for FA and received none and now is paying full boat I would hope students who DO receive aid would be more appreciative than to write haha.

Just got my DDs first acceptance by email. It says a packet is in the mail so I don't know FA yet. This was her 2nd choice and the most convenient for commute since it is closest to our home and offers bus service! YAY. She's going to be thrilled when she gets home from school!
